Phone Call from Corey!

Rejoice always, pray without ceasing, give thanks in all circumstances; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you. Do not quench the Spirit.I Thessalonians 5:16-19 (ESV)

Beloved Petitioners to God on Corey’s Behalf,
I got to talk to Corey yesterday for almost an hour & my folks got to talk to him for another hour. I wanted to update you on what is going on Paicha Playa, Peru among the Tigre Quichua people.
Corey has gotten a shotgun & been able to go hunting with the men. On their trip, they killed two monkeys (or the dogs at least did). Levi has made a fishing spear and gotten to go fishing with the men. They caught approximately 30 fish. They put a poisonous chemical from a tree root into the water which makes the fish surface.
Corey said that people have been listening to the stories that him & Levi have been telling. They have told Part I of Sodom & Gomorrah and the story of the tower of Babel. Corey is hopeful that they will see Tigre Quichuas come to faith in Christ on his final trip there.
Please ask for wisdom in praying for Corey, Levi, and the Tigre.
Pray that God’s Spirit would go down to the hearts of the Tigre & that worship of Him would go back up to the glory due His name.
Levi’s health: he is having referred pain from his internal organs & having allergic reactions to all the gnat bites. Pray both for his infirmaries to leave & for them to have wisdom about treating the infirmaries.
Genuine relationships would be built between the people, Corey, & Levi.
Corey’s betrothed, Racheal Roberts, currently hiking the Appalachian Trail, northbound with friend Anne Tully. They are currently in Virginia.

An ambassador for my brother, Corey,Fellow-ambassador with you of our first-born brother, Christ,
Lena

Quote of the week:
In a conversation about the American conscience of safety as priority, which developed into the topic of kids less than 80 lbs needing to be harnessed in car-seats, Corey says:"That means Lottie Moon would still need to be in car-seat!"
